Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A): In rDNA technology, non-recombinants transformed bacteria grow on the medium containing ampicillin as well as the medium containing tetracycline. 
Reason (R): Recombinant plasmids contain the foreign gene of interest.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: 

1. (A) is True but (R) is False.
2. (A) is False but (R) is True.
3. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

Given below are four statements pertaining to the separation of DNA fragments using gel electrophoresis. Identify the incorrect statements:

(a) DNA is a negatively charged molecule and so it is loaded on gel towards the anode terminal.
(b) DNA fragments travel along the surface of the gel, whose concentration does not affect the movement of DNA.
(c) The smaller the DNA fragment, the greater the distance it travels through it.
(d) Pure DNA can be visualized directly by exposing it to UV radiation.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

1. (a), (c) and (d) 2. (a), (b) and (c)
3. (b), (c) and (d) 4. (a), (b) and (d)
